It is just that there was a lack of completeness of available information at the last meeting. Just before the last meeting, Dr. Neavyn identified that gap and information and identified where that invoice had been. It is of quite some concern to this committee that a complete job was not done in that regard. Some people may deduce there may have been an effort to mislead Deloitte & Touche, for example, in respect of its examination of the issue. Would Dr. Neavyn agree with that assessment or was it a genuine mistake? Was it merely sloppy accounting or was it incompetence?
